La Sepia

Wow I’ve never had a waiter be this rude to me! I’m still in shock. The restaurant when you walk in is nice, good atmosphere and I was seated quickly by a nice man. I have my meal, the white bread wasn’t that good but it’s ok and my glass of white wine is not the best but I don’t mind because the seafood spaghetti was nice. I’m enjoying myself. I then ask for the check and a waiter brings me the wrong check which is fine. He then corrects the prices and says water is like around 4 euros so I express my surprise because it looks like a carafe of tap water and say i thought it would be free. I wasn’t rude I was just surprised. Then he starts speaking Loudly saying where did you read that, you need to see better, points at the menu and is getting mad, I say I’m not mad just surprised, please let me pay. He says tip isn’t included to which I respond okay, he says I can put 10% to which I say yes even though he obviously doesn’t deserve it and then gets mad and says “you don’t tip” but I ended up paying 26 euros so I think he did put in a tip? Any ways bad experience, not okay at all to talk to a patron this way.

I haven't been here in a while but on revisiting I realize that was a mistake. For starters you get served a free helping of bread and aioli. The fish platter on the lunch menu was very tasty and dinner overall a fine experience.

I ordered a mixed seafood plate, oysters and white sangria. The food, vibe and service was nice. If you want to eat fresh seafood in Hamburg then you must visit this place 🌱

Slow food, truly Portuguese! Make sure you are not in a rush: antipasti and main course can take more than 2 hours to serve and eat. However, the food is worth it! Huge portions of very fresh and delicious sea food. Very aesthetically served as well.

I don't leave a review in general however this place absolutely needs a review for other visitors. I was there with my family and got disappointed. The worst experience in Germany. Had 4 sea food platters worth 137euro all together. The amount was small, all taste salty and sea foods are not fresh in my opinion. I paid 150 euro and waitress took it and didn't give me changes back. I actually didn't want to give a tip though. Not good service either. Please think again before you come here.

It was okay - I wouldn't say it was amazing but it was fine. I think that the location of this restaurant outranks the quality of the food. It was nice but not consistently the most fresh. The bread was stale. It's a nice restaurant but I think there would be more traditional places in Portuguese Quarter.

Location was clean and service good, has a nice atmosphere, even at lunch time.

Had a lovely evening here with super nice food! The beef and asparagus were so nice I ordered it twice! Our waiter was super friendly and recommended us some lovely wines that went well with the food. The ambience upstairs was warm which I liked. Would definitely go back when I'm in London again!

We tried to eat here the first night, but it was fully booked! Recommend making a reservation on the fork.
Glad we came back! We chose the Zarzuella, for 2, with crab, lobster, shrimp and mussel.
It was very well cooked in an amazingly tasty sauce!
Highly recommended, if you enjoy sea food!
We'll definitely come back again
